Since its opening in 1971, Stockholm's Museum of Photography has held 150 exhibitions. They have attempted to emphasize two different functions of photography: the photograph as an isolated artistic experience and the photograph as representative of the historical development of this art form in the last 150 years. In the past, viewing a photo implied registering a singular image. Today however, a photograph also aims to express the artist's ideas, experiences, and emotions. This catalog rejoices in the developments of the 1980s, a turning point for photography whereby the talents of a photographer increasingly simulate those of painter. Stunning photographs by Hans Cogne, Lennart Durehed, Åke E:son Lindman, Tuija Lindström, and Håkan Valentin cogently depict these recent developments that have carved out a much-deserved place for photography in the art world.

A few years before this show digital photographic processes were coming into the forefront of photography. It was a development, which overshadowed and still overshadows the old black & white process. This photography is a fine art form now being pressed by time. A black & white photograph is a picture of the soul of the motive. The naturalness of the picture, the colours, are withdrawn. Here is only light and shadow and mixtures of both. To work with an abstraction and at the same time to produce something that is worth seeing, this is the art that the organizers of this salon would like to show their support for.International art photographers from around the world are featured in work, which encompass landscape, cityscape and figurative work.

This exhibition wants to show its support for analog photography which is on its way to become an exclusive art form of the past. The digital print dominates greatly and therefore most photographers have scrapped the darkroom in favour of the computer. This show presents the allure of using an art form where each artistic technique leads the artistic expression. The art is developed on the basis of possibilities and restrictions of the technique. Beautiful black and white photography by an international group of photographers of international subject matters from cityscapes to landscapes to figurative.

During a period of twenty years, 1909- 1929, Diaghilev's Ballets Russes held audiences spellbound on two continents, in Europe and South America, and placed ballet as an art form in focus. The visual artists who worked for the ballet captured an abundance of color in set design and in costume. Here in this catalogue are the costumes from this great era in ballet. These beautiful, vividly colored costumes speak volumes for the feel and life of the ballet.

This catalogue exhibits portraits by Danish press photographer Per Morten Abrahamsen who, by manipulating and staging his motifs, creates an almost surreal universe. Abrahamsen's photographs are documentary, extremely subjective, theatrical and almost frank in their lack of distance between the photographer and subject.

This substantial catalogue with a stunning binding covering the exhibition of Eija-Liisa Ahtila's work is the latest addition to a series on contemporary Finnish artists at the Museum of Contemporary Art KIASMA. It is also the first major showing of Ahtila's works ever held in Finland. The show presents the span of her oevre and its main stages, from her projects in the 1980s to her most recent installations. Included here are screenings of her films in the Kiasma Theatre, where her most recent film Love is a Treasure will have its premiere. Her works from over a decade outline the image of an intellectually keen and accurate expert of visual narrative.

Here are erotic black-and-white photographs of women lying or sitting, partially or totally nude, sometimes dressed only in a corset or black fishnet stockings. The women are very much "the lady next door," with body types that range from slim to lush.

A book published by a young photographer himself, which is impressive enough. But it's the third book of Morten Andersen and his style is developing fast. It's a book about the streets of Oslo with the old buildings and stairways of the 19th century, a book about friends and the walk from the studio back home. The black and white tones are astonishing.
